  1. Quick Launch is Not Available as a Toolbar on the Taskbar


    SYMPTOMS:


    When you right-click the taskbar and point to Toolbars, Quick Launch is not visible. Also, Quick Launch is not enabled by default as a toolbar on the taskbar.


    MORE INFORMATION:


    Windows 10 lets you pin your programs to the taskbar like users of Windows 7 and 8.1 can. However, there is no practical reason to enable Quick Launch as a toolbar on the taskbar. The Quick Launch toolbar was useful on Windows 98 and up to Windows Vista for quickly launching applications from there.

    Win10Pro: Quick Launch toolbar is in the wrong place. Any way to move it to the left end of the toolbar?

    Hi,

    In the Quick Launch toolbar, you can add or remove shortcuts so that you have easy access to items you frequently use from the Quick Launch Toolbar. To move the Quick Launch toolbar to the left side of the task bar, you can follow the steps below:

    • Unlock the taskbar. Press right-click on the taskbar, and uncheck Lock all taskbars.
    • Click and hold on the dotted separator line at the left of the Quick Launch toolbar and drag it to the left.
    • When you are finished, lock the taskbar. Press right-click on the taskbar, and check
      Lock all taskbars.

    Should you need further assistance, don't hesitate to get back to us.

  3. Change icon of Windows 10 Quick Launch (Custom) Toolbar

    I have created a quick launch toolbar of my Games folder (Right click taskbar → Toolbars → New Toolbar → Select Game Folder).

    This creates a toolbar that looks like this:


    Quick Launch is Not Available as a Toolbar on the Taskbar SXsAZ.png


    I am trying to change the icon of these folders on my toolbar.

    I have changed the icon of my folder on my disk, but that does not change the icon on the toolbar. I'm guessing the toolbar icons are shortcuts, but I can't find the location of the shortcuts on the disk.

    All I can find is the disk location of the normal quick launch shortcuts:
    C:\Users\MyName\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar

    Any idea where the toolbar shortcuts are on disk? Or any suggestions?

    Thanks for any help.

    Quick Launch is Not Available as a Toolbar on the Taskbar

    Quick Launch always missing?

    Thank you. I created the Quick Launch by this steps: Firstly, I click the right-hand button of the mouse on the Taskbar--Toolbar--New toolbar. Then C:\Users\(present administrator)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch. Lastly, choose
    "Select folder". I can see the "Quick Launch" icon showed in the bottom right on the Taskbar.
